So the greatest common factor 3699,3400 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 537,3516
3 | 537, 3516 |
179, 1172 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 179 x 1172 = 629364
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/629364
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3699/537,3400/3516 is 1/629364
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 537,3516 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(537,3516) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(537,3516) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(537,3516) = ( 537 × 3516 ) / 3
LCM(537,3516) = 1888092 / 3
LCM(537,3516) = 629364
